[Pride and Prejudice] Red and Black Queen

After old Mr. Wickham and Mr. Darcy had finished talking, they prepared to drive away.

Jojo understood that it was imperative for her and her vest George to move to Pemberley Manor.

Although the emotional energy of little Mr. Darcy is comparable to several people, the energy of one person is still too little.

She needs more, more...

Qiao Qiao turned his gaze to the pastor who presided over the funeral.

The purple cassock billowed as Mr. Reverend marched.

He was about to leave when he heard an "ah".

He kept on walking.

A childish voice sounded——

"Mother."

Everyone looked in the direction of the source of the sound, and Mr. Pastor couldn't help turning his head to look.

But he met a pair of clean and dust-free eyes.

Jojo stretched his arms towards the pastor, stumbling and calling "Mom".

Little Mr. Darcy looked at her in amazement.

The maid on the side quickly said: "Miss, you read it wrong, it is the pastor, Mr. Zachary."

Qiao Qiao blinked blankly, still calling "Mom" to him.

Mr. Darcy also stopped to get into the car and walked over with interest.

"Have you taught her the word?" said little Mr. Darcy.

The maid shook her head.

Old Mr. Wickham looked gloomy, "I've been so busy with my wife's affairs recently that I don't have time to teach her at all."

Little Mr. Darcy showed disbelief, "Then how did she learn this word?"

Mr. Darcy said with a smile: "Is it because she is smart, so she learned it by herself?"

"Ah, ah!" Jojo played with his fingers unconsciously, as if he didn't understand what they were talking about.

Old Mr. Wickham sighed, reaching out his hand to take Jojo.

At this moment, Qiao Qiao raised her limp arms and pointed to the position beside the pastor.

"mom!"

Everyone was taken aback now.

"What did you say, Joe?"

Old Mr. Wickham grabbed Jojo and asked eagerly.

Qiao Qiao let out a burst of laughter, and opened his arms towards the place he just pointed out, as if he was happy to see his relatives.

Old Mr. Wickham's arms were trembling, and he looked at the place Jojo pointed in disbelief, "Really, is it really there?"

Jojo's gaze slowly climbed upwards.

She smiled, and there seemed to be light in her eyes.

"Ah, ah..."

"What? What is she looking at?" Someone in the crowd whispered.

"Is she looking at the sky? Could it be that there are scenes in the sky that we can't see?"

At this moment, the rain in the sky stopped, and the dark clouds were slowly torn open a golden gap.

The sunlight fell through this gap, and it happened to fall between Jojo and the pastor.

Under the golden radiance, the fine dust hovered and rose like little elves with wings.

Jojo looked intently at the gap in the sky.

The golden light fell on her long and curly eyelashes, as if brushed with gold powder, and her eyes were also rendered by this golden light, as if there was a heaven hidden inside.

Pastor Mr. Zachary looked at Jojo, and asked gently: "Tell me, what did you see?"

Qiao Qiao clasped his hands together and pressed them against his chest.

She lowered her eyes, as if praying.

Old Mr. Wickham was taken aback. "That... none of us have ever taught her this."

Mr. Zachary said softly: "Maybe she was born to pray to God, and she can also see the vision of souls going to heaven."

"This is her favor from God, maybe..."

Mr. Zachary just smiled and patted Jojo's head.

Qiaoqiao raised his head, said "Ahhh", and smiled sweetly at Mr. Zachary, like a little angel.

Mr. Zachary couldn't help but also smiled and said: "It seems that she really..."

"Mr. Zachary," old Mr. Wickham interrupted, "George is not feeling well. I will take them home first."

Mr. Zachary smiled subtly, "Mr. Wickham, God has his own will, and running away will not solve the problem."

He looked at Qiao Qiao tenderly and lovingly, "This is not a disaster, but a proof of God's love for the world."

"Your daughter is a person favored by God, you should also let her go to God's arms."

Old Mr. Wickham's expression was not very good, "We will discuss this matter later, and the child and I will go back first."

Mr. Zachary nodded with a smile, "You have to take care of yourself."

Old Mr. Wickham smiled with difficulty, and immediately restrained his smile.

He frowned slightly, and left with Jojo in his arms.

The maid holding George behind her followed immediately.

George looked childish and said nothing.

Little Mr. Darcy silently watched the back of Butler Wickham leaving, feeling a little depressed in his heart.

Ok?

Jojo turned his head, but his sight was blocked by Mr. Wickham.

It turns out that any emotion of the key characters in the book can bring her energy. Although it is not as good as love and hate, it is also more energy than other people's love and hate.

Qiao Qiao thought in his heart: "It seems that I have to get closer to these plot characters without changing the original plot."

System: [Uh, yes... yes. 】

I don't know why, but it always feels that the master will do something bad...

Hahaha, how is it possible?The master is a powerful bishop and demon monk!

"What are you looking at?" Mr. Darcy asked aloud seeing that little Darcy hadn't gotten into the carriage for a long time.

Little Mr. Darcy came to his senses and got into the carriage.

He sat opposite his father, but he looked restless.

Old Mr. Darcy asked curiously: "What are you thinking?"

Little Mr. Darcy raised his head and said politely: "Father, I was wondering if that Miss Wickham will enter a monastery in the future?"

Old Mr. Darcy smiled, "You'd better not trust other people's words too easily in the future, do you think Mr. Zachary really thinks that Joe can see souls?"

Little Darcy's eyes were full of doubts.

Old Mr. Darcy held his cane and gave a low laugh.

"Whether Joe really saw it, or a child's hallucination, Mr. Zachary will try to shape her into a baby girl who can communicate with God, because Mr. Zachary has stayed in the position of Derbyshire priest long enough , he wants to go up one step further, and Joe's appearance is just the boost for him to go up, and, it's just a baby girl, in his opinion, it's easy to control."

Little Mr. Darcy was puzzled: "Isn't Mr. Zachary a devout Christian?"

Old Mr. Darcy said with a smile: "Just because he has a pious belief does not mean that he is a person without ambition."

"Human nature is complicated."

Little Mr. Darcy pinched his fingers, his smoky eyes were like a sky covered with dark clouds.

He asked softly, "Will Butler Wickham really send Miss Wickham to church?"

Old Mr. Darcy: "At least when we old fellows were still around, Mr. Zachley didn't dare to dispose of Miss Wickham at will, unless..."

Little Mr. Darcy asked urgently: "Unless what?"

Old Mr. Darcy smiled, "Unless Joe volunteers to go."

"Or, when we can't protect her."

Little Mr. Darcy: "I... can't I?"

Old Mr. Darcy had complicated expressions in his eyes, and finally said with a smile: "You are too young."

Little Mr. Darcy squeezed his fingers silently.

Old Mr. Darcy slowly rubbed the jeweled handle on the top of the cane, "It seems that you like that little girl Joe very much."

"For George, I can let him succeed his father, continue to work at Pemberley Manor, or help him find a position in the parish."

"However, Joe is just a girl, and I can only hope to find a good husband for her in the future."

"Her mother..." Old Mr. Darcy showed an arrogant and mean expression, "That woman is messing around and likes to spend. Although I have never treated Mr. Wickham badly, but he doesn't have much money in his hands. Back then They were united for love, but that woman was not a woman for Mr Wickham, and her dowry was so little."

"If Miss Wickham's parents die, she will not leave much money at all, probably less than five hundred pounds, oh, that money can only bring her an income of only a dozen pounds a year, and only these It is difficult for girls with low incomes to find a good family.”

"However, she is beautiful. If a young man can fall in love with her and not care about her money, then she will have a good life in the future."

Old Mr. Darcy said bluntly: "For Jo, using her beauty and youth to win over a gentleman is her best and happiest life."

"Marriage is a very important thing that needs careful consideration. The last thing you need in marriage is love."

"Although I appreciate Mr. Wickham's contributions to the Darcy family over the years, I don't want you to have a marriage relationship with Miss Wickham in the future."

Little Darcy was stunned, "Father, father!"

Old Mr. Darcy laughed again, showing a kind side, "Of course, if Jo has always chosen to be an old lady and work for the Darcy family, we can't afford to support her."

Little Mr. Darcy hung his head. He didn't quite understand what his father meant, but he just felt vaguely uncomfortable.

It shouldn't be like this.

Angelic Miss Wickham should not be "weighed" like a commodity.

He pressed his knee silently, without saying a word.

Old Mr. Darcy shook his head slightly when he saw the appearance of little Darcy.

……

After the funeral, both Jojo and George were taken to Pemberley Manor by old Mr. Wickham.

Lord Darcy arranged for the two to live and take care of their maids, treating them as their own children.

Even in infancy, Qiao Qiao is unwilling to waste time.

She often pretends to be cute and let the maids carry her around.

Fortunately, the maid who took care of her was the one from Wickham's who wanted to climb high.

Under the pretense that Joe wanted to see around, the maid often carried Joe around the Pemberley Manor.

The maid always felt that she was lucky. Every time she went out with Joe in her arms, she would meet old Mr. Darcy, Mrs. Darcy and little Mr. Darcy.

Qiao Qiao smiled, hiding his merit and fame deeply.

The reason why the maid was able to run into the owner of Pemberley Manor when she carried her out was, of course, because she enveloped the entire Pemberley Manor with her spiritual power and could sense everyone's actions. When the maid was wandering around, she would "" Ahhh" several times, leading the maid to these places.

After her experiments in the past few days, she found that only Mr. Darcy was a special plot character who could provide more emotional energy, and his father and mother were no different from the energy provided by ordinary people.

Qiao Qiao sighed in his mind: "Therefore, there is no future for guarding Pemberley Manor."

System: [Then what are you going to do? 】

Jojo: "You must take the initiative."

"I can feel that Mr. Zachary has been wanting to visit me, and maybe this is a good opportunity."

Qiao Qiao, who was talking to the system like this, immediately showed a smile like a little angel when he saw Mr. Darcy, and opened his arms to Mr. Darcy, "Hug, hug."

System: [...Master, didn't you just say that there is no future? 】

Qiao Qiao explained solemnly: "No matter how small a fly is, it is still a piece of meat."

The system couldn't laugh or cry: [What kind of rotten metaphors are you talking about. 】

Little Mr. Darcy tried hard to keep a straight face, but he broke through Jojo's bright smile.

He pursed his lips, suppressed a smile, stretched out his hand and hugged Qiao Qiao skillfully, making her lie more comfortably.

System: [Mr. Darcy's skillful movements are really distressing. 】

After Qiao Qiao achieved his goal, he closed his eyes, absorbed the emotional energy from him silently, and ignored him no more.

Little Mr. Darcy could not help feeling a little discouraged.

Obviously she was still smiling at him just now, why did she ignore him when he hugged her?

This is not the case once or twice.

The maid on the side smiled and said, "Miss likes you. As soon as you hug her, she falls asleep. This just means that you are someone she trusts, so she is willing to sleep in your arms."

Little Mr. Darcy opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Is that so?"

"Hey, that's the way it is, then... there's no other way."

Little Mr. Darcy coaxed Jojo softly, and said in a low voice: "Her younger brother is my father's godson, so she is naturally my younger sister."

only……

Little Mr. Darcy recalled the scene where George called his father to his father a few days ago, and he only felt that George was even more annoying.

He clearly knew that children at this time couldn't distinguish anything, and they couldn't think, but he just vaguely felt that George had been prepared to call his father Dad.

Maybe he was thinking too much, a real gentleman shouldn't think of other young gentlemen like this.

Little Mr. Darcy examined himself silently.

But, in his heart, he felt--Joe and George, the one was terribly lovely, the other terribly odious.

……

One afternoon, when Mr. Darcy was drinking tea in the garden with Jojo in his arms, Mr. Zachary, the vicar of Derbyshire, came to visit.

He came into the garden with Butler Wickham, and chatted with Mr. Darcy about the Bible.

Mr. Zachary said a word from the "Bible", and Jojo suddenly learned the first word.

Mr. Zachary's eyes lit up.

Every time he said a sentence, Jojo would follow up with the first word, every time.

Mr. Zachary said pleasantly: "God, Miss Wickham is really blessed by God. She has learned to speak the Bible before she has learned to speak."

The system complained: [This pastor is really perfunctory, does co-authoring the first word count as reading the Bible?No matter how simple Protestantism is, it cannot be so simple! 】

Qiao Qiao calmly said in his mind: "Don't blame him, he is only a human being, not a god. No matter how pious his beliefs are, he cannot completely get rid of human desires."

"Mr. Zachary." Mr. Darcy said dissatisfiedly.

Mr. Zachary stopped his praise and leaned over to hug Jojo.

Jojo obediently let him pick her up, but she couldn't help pressing her hand on the "Bible" brought by Mr. Zachary.

Mr. Zachary said excitedly: "Mr. Wickham, please allow me to take your young lady to participate in church activities. This will definitely benefit her a lot."

Old Mr. Wickham looked hesitant, "This..."

Mr. Zachary looked at Jojo, and asked gently: "Miss Wickham willing?"

Jojo held out his hand to him, showing a bright smile.

"Ok!"

Mr. Zachary looked at old Mr. Wickham with a look of triumph on his face, "Look, Miss Wickham is different."

Old Mr. Wickham said in a low voice: "You can take the little girl if you like, alas."

He seemed to have no energy to dwell on this matter any longer.

Little Mr. Darcy seemed hesitant to speak, and his father's warning came to his mind for no reason.

In the study in the evening, his father had warned him like this——

"You care too much about Miss Wickham. She is indeed a lovely child, but your caring will bring disaster to her. After all, she is a young child who cannot take care of herself and needs the protection of adults."

Little Mr. Darcy lowered his head and silently clenched his fists.

Qiao Qiao took a deep breath and enjoyed it.

Such ample energy.

The system doubted: [Master, you must have influenced Mr. Darcy, right? 】

Jojo: "No, I didn't affect the plot in the book."

System: […… Changed the subject, so, you admit it! 】

Qiao Qiao smiled, and said calmly and coldly: "I'm just contributing to the home planet, don't worry, the influence of my mental power on him is safe and harmless, and it will not affect the subsequent plot."

system:【……】

Master, I believe you are a ghost!You are the woman who wants to make the whole planet your property!

Qiao Qiao seemed to know what the system was slandering, she said slowly: "I think Zachary said a good thing, God loves the world, isn't that what I said, I love these people who can provide me with energy, and How could it hurt them?"

"I love them equally."
